FREE FILM SCREENING 'The Need To GROW'

Moreton Climate Action Now campaign invites you to join us on an unforgettable film journey through The Need To GROW .

Supported by Moreton Bay City Council and facilitated by Earth Conscious Films, this screening will complement a Grow It Local workshop at in the Library Events Room at North Lakes Library.

The screening will be followed by a facilitated discussion. 

With an estimated 60 years of farmable soil left on Earth, The Need To GROW offers an intimate look into the hearts of activists and innovators in the food movement - an 8 year old girl challenges the ethics of a beloved organization - a renegade farmer struggles to keep his land as he revolutionizes resource efficient agriculture - and an accomplished visionary inventor faces catastrophe in the midst of developing a game-changing soil regeneration technology.

The Need To GROW delivers alarming evidence on the importance of healthy soil - revealing not only the potential of localized food production working with nature, but our opportunity as individuals to help regenerate our planet’s dying soils and participate in the restoration of the Earth.

The Need To GROW follows pioneers of cutting edge technology as they fight to localize sustainable food systems and regenerate Earth's dying soils.

The Need To GROW has won multiple film awards including:
